Thanks kindly. I have had great shoes from ECCO in the past and I am proud to have Danish family (parents), so I'm extra happy to buy from a Danish company. I looked for your boots locally but no stores had them in stock. I decided to buy them online without trying them on, hesitantly. I have had them for a couple weeks now and sadly I have some serious buyer's remorse. I know that hiking boots need to be worn in, and my experience has been no different. The shoes aren't wide enough at the welt, so I had a cobbler attempt to stretch them. Another issue, I went on a hill hike last week and got a nasty blister on my heel.

It's a Catch 22 situation. New boots needs to be worn in, yet after a while they are too 'used' to return if it's not working out, right? I still have hope they will wear in, but I have told myself to never buy footwear online again. Sorry I don't have a better story for you, but that is my situation. Thanks again for asking my opinion.

This boot fits me like a glove. Comfort was immediate and absolutely no movement of my foot in the boot. I just purchased the boots and so far have only worn them on short hikes/walks with my dog( an hour plus) and I can't think of anything negative to say about the boot. I inadvertently wore these boots (forgot I was wearing them-comfort!) for 3 hours of clearing snow in our neighborhood (10" of snow, higher drifts) my feet immersed in snow for much of the time. Only after I finished did I realize I used my brand new hiking boots! The leather showed it was wet but my feet were completely dry and stayed warm and comfortable throughout. This is my second pair of shoes with the Biom technology and I am absolutely sold.
